After I Transmigrated into a Book, I Was Forced to Woo the Tyrant

[For the bonus chapters, check out my column. My new novel, Clumsy Rose, is now underway. Weibo: @Naitang Yuan Xiaoruan]

Shen Xinyao transmigrates into the sixteen-year-old heroine of an over-the-top ancient romance novel full of scumbag men, foolish women, and physical and emotional torment.

Not only does she have to change her fate and dump the scumbag, she must also complete the mission to win over the Crown Prince. She has to choose one of the princes as her target, or she'll die by setting herself on fire.

But there are three princes in the running for Crown Prince. Can someone tell her which one to choose?!

The First Prince is hot-tempered, the Fourth Prince is cruel, and only the Sixth Prince looks like a normal person.

Shen Xinyao waves her little hand. All right, him it is!

Choice made. Target locked.

She does everything she can to attract the Sixth Prince's attention.

Before long, Shen Xinyao gets her wish.

But that's when she discovers that the Sixth Prince is actually cold and heartless, cruel and bloodthirsty: a bona fide tyrant.

Shen Xinyao: I'm done being the Sixth Prince's sweet little wife. Is it still in time to run?

One day.

Steward: Your Highness, Miss Shen says she doesn't love anyone else, only you.

The Sixth Prince, looking down at his book: Mm.

Another day.

Steward: Your Highness, Miss Shen is spreading rumors that you're so picky, you're only interested in her in all of Kyoto.

The Sixth Prince, looking down at a letter: Mm.

Another day.

The steward beams: Your Highness, Miss Shen finally realized she was wrong. She says she's not worthy of you, only a fairy could be your wife, and she won't set her sights on you anymore!

The Sixth Prince snaps the pen in his hand: She wouldn't dare.

Steward: ???

Note:

1. Both leads are each other's first love, one-on-one romance, with melodramatic, feel-good sweetness. No historical research, entirely fictional setting.

2. Updated daily. Unless something comes up, new chapters go up at midnight.

Clumsy Rose

Ming Ran is a wealthy heiress in Zhenming whom nobody dares to cross. Rich, powerful, spoiled, and reckless.

Chu Yuan is a famous scholarship student.

Extremely poor, extremely clever, extremely aloof, and always dressed in old clothes and shoes washed pale with wear.

And yet Ming Ran falls for him.

A young girl's love is passionate and fierce, high-handed, and impossible to refuse.

After an accident leaves her parents dead, Ming Ran goes from princess to Cinderella.

Chu Yuan only looks at her coldly as she stands there, flustered and helpless. "This is what you deserve."

Only then does Ming Ran realize that he hates her.

Later, she disappears.

Ten years later, Chu Yuan is a business prodigy who can turn the tides of the commercial world.

He is nearing thirty and still unmarried, claiming to be a bachelor by choice.

No one knows that he often dreams.

In his dreams, the girl is radiant as a rose. As if presenting him with a treasure, she takes a basket of steamed buns from her schoolbag and calls him coyly, "A Yuan."

They were his favorite when he was a child. She had gone to great lengths to find the shop owner, who had long since left the business, and begged him to make a basket.

When he wakes, he smokes all night. Her repeated calls of "A Yuan" still ring in his ears.

At an art exhibition, he stares at a woman's self-portrait, his eyes turning red.

Everyone in their circle says she is an artist personally supported by the Huo family's head, as well as the future Mrs. Huo: Ming Ran.

That night, Chu Yuan drinks until he suffers gastric bleeding and is rushed to the hospital.

At the exhibition's celebratory banquet, someone sees Chu Yuan pull Ming Ran into a nearby lounge.

A commotion erupts inside, and the guests are so startled that they break down the door.

To everyone's shock, Chu Yuan is a disheveled mess, his eyes full of pain as he practically begs: "Ranran, I regret it. Please come back to me."

Ming Ran pushes him away, her manner cold. "Mr. Chu, you're too late."

Later, as they lie entwined together, he begs her to say, "I love you."

Ming Ran scoffs. "Mr. Chu, we're just using each other. Talking about love ruins the fun."

Chu Yuan discovers Ming Ran's secret when she's drunk.

The declaration of love she had tattooed on her waist back then has never been removed.

He exhales a ring of smoke and grips her soft waist. "You don't love me anymore, hmm?"

Years later, I pretend I don't love you, but my acting is painfully unconvincing.
